Hello everyone,
I just wanted to briefly introduce myself and say thank you.
For about a year and a half, I have been a silent reader here to gather inspiration and especially to gain more knowledge about construction technology.
Now a bit about me:
After more than a year of searching for a plot of land, I was able to purchase one from a developer who couldn’t move forward quickly with his plans.
So we found our dream plot (good location, 2500 m² (0.62 acres), slight slope, underground private spring that we have to preserve and are allowed to use).
There was an old house on the property, which we have since demolished.
There is no zoning plan, so §34 applies. During an initial informal inquiry at the building authority, almost everything we planned was rejected.
So we submitted an official preliminary building inquiry, involved the right people, and had lengthy discussions. In the end, we received a positive decision.
Therefore, there is nothing standing in the way of the building permit. The building permit should be granted within the next few weeks as there are no changes from the preliminary inquiry.
My wife (37) and I (36) want to build a Bauhaus-style villa in southern Baden-Württemberg.
It will be constructed from concrete (with core insulation) or in combination with insulated precast elements.
A lot of glass (full-glass system), textile shading, KNX, fast network both wired and wireless, strong mechanical ventilation with additional cooling coils, stainless steel pool, large cistern, and more.
The electrical planning must be 100% spot on since it’s almost impossible to make changes afterward.
Since I am friends with an architect from a larger firm, it was clear which route we would take. Such a house can basically only be realized with an architect.
I also personally know the electrician and KNX system integrator, as well as the owners and work approach of the heating, plumbing, and ventilation companies involved.
Some trades have already been contracted, and part of the equipment has already been ordered.
I’m really looking forward to getting started and to the final result. The goal is to move in by the end of 2019.
Once again, many thanks for the information I have received from you so far.
If you have any questions, just let me know.
Attached is the design, though not the final version. There have been a few minor changes.
Greetings from Swabia

... I really appreciate a Wiesmann. ..Really? They have zero comfort! And at our age, you basically can’t get in, let alone get out. They’re just around the corner here, and you occasionally see one. Definitely stylish, but less comfortable than a Porsche...pagoni2020 schrieb:

The project is somewhat reminiscent of certain houses in Bel Air! 🙂
For example, YouTube: 924 Bel Air Rd. California
This house is still missing the 200" (inch) screen by the pool 🙂
(... and the helicopter as decoration!)
or YouTube: Bel-Air Mansion with Hidden Car ElevatorYou must be really bored 😀Schimi1791 schrieb:
My wife might like that ... 😉 Especially when the kid doesn’t listen 😎 😀There’s something similar for women, also with remote control 😎

Guys, you have to try Alpina! I’ve rarely experienced such a cool combination of speed and comfort as there. I have to ask two questions right away: a. How big do you see the difference compared to the M-technology?; b. How good are the wines from Bovensiepen, actually?

Alpina focuses absolutely on durability and long-term reliability. The Alpina engines and the whole package are basically what the company itself should ideally offer (everything a bit larger and of higher quality). For example, with the D3/B3, you could easily use up nearly 300 liters (about 79 gallons) on the full tank, and the car wouldn’t be bothered. The interior allows for complete customisation, going well beyond standard individual options. I would be more cautious with the M3 in this regard. The point is that Alpina is generally not as aggressively sporty as M models but can absolutely keep up in terms of performance. For those who care about engine sound: the D3 is barely audible (unfortunately), the D5 can be heard a little, while the B models sound great. It’s all about understatement, and the extra cost at service centers for M models is avoided. Plus, models like the B7 and the smaller ones are available as station wagons (estate cars), which you won’t find in the M range. And a 350 hp diesel station wagon with an average consumption well below 7 liters (about 33 mpg) is simply nice.
